Job Details

This position is for the F-35 TSSC Database Generation System Engineering position for the RAAF Williamtown Australia location as an expatriate employee. This position will have the responsibility for Database Generation System (DBGS) processes, supporting data and database product production. The TSSC overall is responsible for sustainment of the fielded Training System enterprise providing pilot and maintainer training across multiple training locations.

The individual selected for this position will be responsible for sustainment of multispectral simulation databases for use in the Full Mission Simulators. The DBGS Engineer will have the opportunity to work with imagery, height maps, and vector data, fusing them together into immersive 3D worlds. This involves use of a specific software modelling toolkit to build and modify gaming areas, moving models, environmental characteristics and visual effects based on evolving training operational requirements. Multispectral Database Generation System Engineers must have two overlapping skill sets. DBGS Modelling tasks involve converting geographic source material into the visual and sensor gaming areas in the Full Mission Simulator.
